| Gefahrenübersicht | Hydrazines are clear, colorless liquids with an ammonia-like odor. There are many kinds of hydrazine compounds, including hydrazine, 1,1-dimethylhydrazine, and 1,2-dimethylhydrazine. Small amounts of hydrazine occur naturally in plants. Most hydrazines are manufactured for use as rocket propellants and fuels, boiler water treatments, chemical reactants, medicines, and in cancer research. Hydrazines are highly reactive and easily catch fire.Individuals may be exposed to hydrazine in the workplace or to small amounts in tobacco smoke. Symptoms of acute (short-term) exposure to high levels of hydrazine may include irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, dizziness, headache, nausea, pulmonary edema, seizures, and coma in humans. Acute exposure can also damage the liver, kidneys, and central nervous system in humans. The liquid is corrosive and may produce dermatitis from skin contact in humans and animals. Effects to the lungs, liver, spleen, and thyroid have been reported in animals chronically (long-term) exposed to hydrazine via inhalation. Increased incidences of lung, nasal cavity, and liver tumors have been observed in rodents exposed to hydrazine. EPA has classified hydrazine as a Group B2, probable human carcinogen.Liquid causes second or third degree burns after short contact[CHRIS] Corrosive to skin[Quick CPC] A case of pulmonary edema following an inhalation exposure has been reported. [ACGIH] Patients poisoned by hydrazines may develop symptoms of CNS injury, methemoglobinemia, and liver damage. [HSDB] Allergic contact dermatitis from hydrazine in flux for soldering has been reported in electronic workers. [Marks, p. 318] [Hydrazine contact dermatitis from gold plating. Wrangsjo K, et al. Contact Dermatitis. 1986 Oct15(4):244-5.] Allergic contact dermatitis reported in workers using solder containing hydrazine sulfate, hydrazine hydrobromide, or hydrazine hydrochloride[Kanerva, p. 1801] In high-dose reproductive studies of animals, hydrazine derivatives (hydrazine, MMH, and UDMH) cause testicular damage and fetal loss, and hydrazine causes birth defects. [Frazier, p. 341-2] Hydrazine and hydrazine sulfate are reasonably anticipated to be human carcinogens. [NTP] Hydrazines antagonize GABA in the CNS causing excitation and seizures. Pyridoxine, vitamin B6, is a specific antidote for this effect. [AHLS, p. 426] See Carcinogenicity of some industrial chemicals, Volume 115. [IARC, News Release, 23 February 2016] |

| Treatment | Induced emesis, gastric lavage, use of saline cathartics, or activated charcoal are commonly used to decrease the gastrointestinal absorption of hydrazines. In general, these treatments are most effective when used within a few hours after oral exposure. Following dermal or ocular exposures to hydrazines, all contaminated clothing should be removed, and contacted skin should be washed immediately with soap and water. Eyes that have come in contact with hydrazines should be flushed with copious amounts of water. Contact lenses should be removed prior to flushing with water. (L154) |

| Wechselwirkungen | The influence of gut microbiota on the toxicity and metabolism of hydrazine has been investigated in germ-free and 'conventional' Sprague Dawley rats using (1)H NMR based metabonomic analysis of urine and plasma. Toxicity was more severe in germ-free rats compared with conventional rats for equivalent exposures indicating that bacterial presence altered the nature or extent of response to hydrazine and that the toxic response can vary markedly in the absence of a functional microbiome.Pretreatment of Vicia faba root-tip meristems with a nontoxic dose of either hydrazine or N,N'-diformylhydrazine prior to the administration of maleic hydrazide, separated by 2 hr, resulted in a significant reduction of the yield of maleic hydrazide-induced chromatid aberrations compared to control treatments (maleic hydrazide only). This clastogenic adaptation was not observed when the alkylating agent triethylene melamine was used instead of maleic hydrazide. Thus, pretreatment with the hydrazines induces an error-free repair system which reduces maleic hydrazide-induced damage and both hydrazines and maleic hydrazide appear able to induce oxidative DNA lesions.Administration of the hepatotoxin and carcinogen, inorganic hydrazine, to rodents results in the formation of 7-methylguanine and O6-methylguanine in liver DNAco-administration of methyl-(14)C-methionine or (14)C-formate with the hydrazine labels the methylguanines, suggesting involvement of the 1-carbon pool in the methylation process. The present study investigates the proposal that the methylation mechanism involves reaction of hydrazine with endogenous formaldehyde to yield formaldehyde hydrazone, which could be metabolized to the potent methylating agent diazomethane. Hamsters were pretreated with methanol, ethanol or cyanamide to alter the endogenous hepatic aldehyde levels prior to administration of hydrazine. Formaldehyde levels were refractory to the pretreatmenthepatic acetaldehyde levels were increased, but hydrazine administration under such conditions did not result in the formation of ethylated guanines in DNA. Methanol and ethanol inhibited hydrazine-induced methylaton of DNA. Hydrazine incubated with liver S9 fraction and calf thymus DNA induced the formation of 7-methylguanine and O6-methylguanine when formaldehyde was present in the incubation systemsubstitution of formaldehyde with acetaldehyde in the incubation medium did not result in any detectable alkylation of DNA. Both liver microsomal and cytosolic fractions demonstrated heat-labile activity in supporting the hydrazine-induced methylation process. Tetraformyltrisazine or a similar reaction product of hydrazine and formaldehyde, may be a more important intermediate than formaldehyde hydrazone in the hydrazine-induced methylation of DNA.Hydrazine hepatotoxicity in vivo, as manifested by triglyceride accumulation, depletion of ATP and reduced glutathione (GSH) was shown to be dose related. The effect of pretreatment of rats with various inhibitors and inducers of cytochrome p450 on these dose-response relationships was investigated. Pretreatment with the inhibitor piperonyl butoxide increased triglyceride accumulation whereas pretreatment with the inducers phenobarbital and beta-naphthoflavone resulted in reduced triglyceride accumulation. Pretreatment with the inducers acetone and isoniazid also enhanced triglyceride accumulation. Only phenobarbital pretreatment also significantly reduced glutathione and ATP depletion. A linear correlation was found between hepatic glutathione and ATP levels in non-pretreated animals given various doses of hydrazine. However, exponential relationships were found between hepatic triglycerides and both hepatic ATP and glutathione. The results suggest that i) the hepatotoxicity of hydrazine can be modulated by inducing or inhibiting particular isoenzymes of cytochrome p450, ii) ATP and glutathione depletion may not be directly involved in the development of fatty liver.For more Interactions (Complete) data for Hydrazine (7 total), please visit the HSDB record page. |

| Umweltverhalten | TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 13(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that hydrazine is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Hydrazine is a weak base with a pKa of 7.96(3), which indicates it will exist partially in the protonated form in moist soils, and this species may adsorb more than the free base(3). Volatilization of free-base hydrazine from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an environmental fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 6.1X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), based upon its vapor pressure, 14.4 mm Hg(4), and assigned value for water solubility of 1.0X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(5). Hydrazine is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(4). Hydrazine appears to degrade more rapidly in soil than in water, with oxidation as the main removal processes. Comparison to degradation rates in sterile soils indicated that autoxidation appeared to be the major factor contributing to disappearance of the chemical with <3% recovered from sterile soil. Biodegradation was a relatively minor fate processin non-sterile soils, 20% of hydrazine loss was attributed to biodegradation(6).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 13(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that hydrazine is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 6.1X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 14.4 mm Hg(4), and assigned value for water solubility of 1.0X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(5). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 34 and 250 days, respectively(SRC). A pKa of 7.92(6) indicates hydrazine will exist partially in the cation form at pH values of 5 to 9 and, therefore, volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). According to a classification scheme(7), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from its Kow of -2.07(8) and a regression-derived equation(2), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Utilizing fresh water inoculm, 90% of a low concentration of hydrazine was reached in 2 hours(9) indicating that biodegradation is an environmental fate process in water(SRC). However the compound is toxic to microorganisms at high concentrations(9).AQUATIC FATE: Hydrazine is degraded rapidly in water through abiotic processes(SRC). The estimated half-life of hydrazine, initially present at 1.8 mM, in pond water was 8.3 days(1). In river water, containing substantial amounts of organic matter, 22.6%, 96%, and 100% of the added hydrazine, initially at 5 mg/L, was degraded after about 1 hour, 1 day and 2 days, respectively. In pond water, 20%, 74%, 80%, and 81.6% of the added hydrazine, initially at 5 mg/L, was degraded after about 1 hr, 1 day, 2 days and 3 days, respectively(2). Hydrazine will react with dissolved oxygen at a rate inversely proportional to the concentration of hydrazine. After 4 days, 52%, 48%, 21.4% and 7.4% of the added hydrazine had degraded in hard water, moderately hard water, slightly hard water, and soft water samples, respectively. The addition of organic matter increased the amount of hydrazine degraded(2). Hydrazine solutions are inherently unstable in the presence of oxygen under alkaline or neutral conditions (the autoxidation rate was found to be higher at pH 7.0 than at pH 9.0)however, they are quite stable under strongly acidic conditions or in the absence of oxygen(3).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), hydrazine, which has a measured vapor pressure of 14.4 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase hydrazine is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be about 6.6 hours, calculated from its rate constant of 3.7X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). Vapor-phase hydrazine also reacts with ozone(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be about 9 hours(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3X10-17 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(4). It was estimated that the half-life for the reaction of hydrazine with ozone would be <10 minutes during ozone pollution episodes and <2 hours in the 'natural' troposphere(5). Hydrazine will react rapidly with nitrogen oxides in the light and in the dark with a half-life of about 2 hours(6). Hydrazine does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(7) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). |

| Toxizitätsübersicht | IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Hydrazine is a colorless oily liquid. It is used as an oxygen scavenger in boiler water treatment, as an electrodeless nickel coating reagent, and in rocket propellant. It is also used in a variety of other fields including pharmaceuticals, explosives, polymers and polymer additives, antioxidants, metal reductants, hydrogenation of organic groups, photography, xerography, and dyes. It has been tested as an experimental therapy. HUMAN STUDIES: Skin contact with anhydrous hydrazine leads to caustic-like burns and dissolves hair. Allergic contact dermatitis has been reported. Exposure to the eyes can produce temporary blindness. Liquid splashes to the eyes can produce corneal injury and burns. In cases of acute human poisoning, vomiting, severe irritation of the respiratory tract with the development of pulmonary edema, central nervous system depression, and hepatic and renal damage have been reported. Allergic contact dermatitis has been reported. Exposure to hydrazine increases the risk of incident lung cancers and colon cancers, based on a study in a cohort of aerospace workers. ANIMAL STUDIES: Hydrazine hydrate produced moderately severe irritation when 3 to 5 mL was applied to rabbit cornea, whereas 1 mL was much less irritating. Rabbit skin that was treated with 3 mL of anhydrous hydrazine for 1 min, followed by washing the treated area. Despite washing, mortality ensued 60 to 90 min after application. Acute toxicity has been characterized by liver damage consisting of fatty degeneration, red blood cell destruction and anemia, anorexia, weight loss, weakness, vomiting, excitability, hypoglycemia, and convulsions. Groups of dogs, monkeys, rats, and mice were exposed either 24 hr/day, 7 days/wk to 6.2 or 1 ppm, or 6 hr/day, 5 days/wk to 1 or 5 ppm hydrazine for 6 months. Mortality was seen in mice and dogs, but not in monkeys or rats. Dogs showed hematologic deficits and increased numbers of reticulocytes. Liver changes that consisted of modAt least two mechanisms of action have been observed. One involves the direct binding of those hydrazines with a free amino group (hydrazine and 1,1-dimethylhydrazine) to key cellular molecules. Hydrazine reacts with alpha-keto acids such as vitamin B6 to form hydrazoines compounds. By binding to keto acids and forming hydrazones, hydrazine inhibits oxygen consumption with mitochondrial substrates in vitro. A second mechanism involves the generation of reactive species such as free radical intermediates or methyldiazonium ions as a result of metabolism. (L154) |

| Ökotoxizitätsauszüge | /AQUATIC SPECIES/ 96-hr continuous flow no lethal effect concentration was 0.43 mg/L in bluegills (Lepomis macrochirus). The dorsal light response in the presence of an artificial prey was significantly decreased within 15 min of exposure to hydrazine concentrations well below the 96 hr static LC50. This was true both in static and in continuous-flow conditions. Aggressiveness, as measured by the number of attacks on the prey, was increased in a dose-related manner. Control fish made no attacks, but attacks increased as the hydrazine concentrations increased./AQUATIC SPECIES/ The toxicities of hydrazine and phenylhydrazine to embryos and larvae of zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio, were studied under standardized conditions. Exposures to the chemicals started at the blastula stage and the effect on hatching and survival were monitored for 15 days. The results showed that toxicities of phenylhydrazine to both embryos and larvae were more than those of hydrazine. The Lowest Observed Effect Concentration for hatching was 0.049 mg/L for hydrazine and 0.0078 mg/L for phenylhydrazine, the Lowest Observed Effect Concentration for survival of larvae was 0.0035 mg/L for hydrazine and 0.00098 mg/L for phenylhydrazine, respectively. The No Adverse Observed Effect Concentration for hatching was 0.0245 mg/L for hydrazine and 0.0039 mg/L for phenylhydrazine and the No Adverse Observed Effect Concentration for survival of larvae was 0.00175 mg/L for hydrazine and 0.00049 mg/L for phenylhydrazine, respectively./AQUATIC SPECIES/ Twelve day old eggs of rainbow trout Salmo gairdneri were exposed to 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 5.0 mg/L. Eggs were exposed for 48 hr and subsequently maintained in recirculating-flow system. Exposure did not result in mortality or reduction in hatching. Aberrations in morphogenesis of larvae including loss of muscular control, reduced growth rates and loss of tactile sensitivity at 1.0 and 5.0 mg/L./AQUATIC SPECIES/ Eggs of fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) at the mid-cleavage stage were exposed to hydrazine for 24 or 48 hr. Embryos, exposed for 24 hr, to 0.1 mg/L, showed several defects, such as slightly or moderately subnormal heart beat, hemoglobin levels, body movement, and amount of eye pigment. From 1 mg/L upwards, the responses were generally strongerin addition, body pigment was absent and developmental arrest was observed. Embryos exposed to a hydrazine concentration of 1.0 mg/L for 48 hr appeared to have little chance of survival. Surviving embryos showed severe deformities and larvae exhibited reduced growth.For more Ecotoxicity Excerpts (Complete) data for Hydrazine (8 total), please visit the HSDB record page. |
